Commenters have asked for blogs on some of the other members of the Duggar family and we still get another blog on the couples. Couples and love are nice but please give some attention to the rest of the Duggars too. How y'all doin? Thanks Lily and Ellie!

What I love about their principles and convictions is that just by looking at these pictures you can tell who is married and who is not and it's a beautiful thing because nowadays there's no difference between dating couples and married couples

No updates on Michael and Brandon or Jessa and Ben? I had hoped we would have heard more. Jill's dress is beautiful just like she is. Thank you for sharing the pictures and thank you Duggars and Bates for allowing us quick glimpses into your lives.

Lovely couples - I can't help thinking that for people who aren't allowed to do more than a side hug eg Ben and Jessa - they sure manage to fit in a lot of head hugging instead!!! I hope Brandon is ok with courting a girl with a boys name - Michael - seriously now she's an adult she should try and do something about it unless of course she just likes it or is used to it.

The Bates and the Duggars are all lovely, not a bad looking one in the bunch (not that I would say if I thought otherwise), thank you so much for keeping us updated. I've been a fan of the Duggars for years and the Bates for a couple of years but it's such an exciting time as these kids we've watched grow up fall in love and start their own families. I think Jess will be engaged soon and I predict in 2015 Janna, John David and Jinger will start courtships.

ABC recently aired a segment on the Bates family. It was centered around Alyssa's wedding but also gave an update on Zach and Whitney and the rest of the clan. We posted the video to our blog: http://duggarsblog.blogspot.com/2014/07/gil-and-kelly-bates-and-their-19.html

Thanks for leaving your comments! We answer as many of your questions as we can, but due to the number of comments we receive daily, we are unable to answer every one. Our aim is to post all points of view, but we do not post anything that is profane, insulting, derogatory, or in poor taste.
